My recent travels to all these places got me in to a thought process of how citizens makes a huge difference in making their cities and life more sustainable or vulnerable. Wide foot paths in Delhi signifies citizen interest to walk.Slums in Delhi and Mumbai indicates the social inequalities. A sense of fear in Delhi girls express their feel of insecurity within a man-made secured zones.Crack free 1940 built Parliament buildings in Delhi show strength and corruption free mindset of engineers. Beautiful parks in Bangalore reflects citizen preference for green zones. Long sea beach in Mumbai tells the story of citizens to be closer to nature.Crowded trains in Mumbai talks about their hardship. Tall buildings in Mumbai shown their attitude to put more weight on mother Earth. Polite cab drivers in Mumbai reflect their honesty and responsible culture. Huge traffic congestion in Bangalore signifies lack of vision for the people and city. Tasty breakfast in Bangalore, puffy mutton in Delhi and Ice Halwa in Mumbai indicates how foodies they are.
But a common point witnessed across is “Youth wearing torn Jeans” something similar to punctured ozone layer, hence bit worried about their lack of thinking veracity and velocity. If that is meaning of fashion, their passion for fashion has to be moderated.
Overall, it draws me to an inference of “We want Rights to enjoy but not ready to entitle Responsibilities”, “Our culture is Strong but our life style is Weak”, “We inherited materials and exhaled Values” and “We want Democracy but live in Hypocrisy”

4 年True. Our mind share on duties not cultivated. We try to overlook and expect others to do or follow. Expect everything from Government, not realizing that Governments are elected by us.?
